Red or White?

Miso comes in red or white, sometimes blended variations. For a sweeter, milder taste, go with white. Red is more intense. For hot pots, it’s your choice!

Skillet

Shime

Shime (the finish), is like the finishing touch to a grand hot pot meal. With most nabe recipes, rice or udon is eaten with the leftover broth.

Nabemono

HOT POT NEW YEAR! HOT POT NEW YEAR! HOT POT NEW YEAR!

Winters are cold in Japan. So when the weather turns cold, the family nabe comes out of the cupboard. Nabemono, or literally “pot stuff”, is a hot bubbling stew cooked in an earthenware pot (nabe)—ideally at the center of the dining table so everyone can dig in. Zojirushi can do nabemono too, in a special style that only we can, with our Gourmet d’Expert ® Electric Skillet.
